Re: The I Worked on My Car Today Thread

Replaced the fuel filter. I had a heck of a time with removing the fuel lines. I finally got some better light in there and saw there are some plastic rings below the metal parts of the connectors, those are what need to be moved up into the connector to remove the fuel lines. I hated hacking up my ...

Re: Amplifier - How Volvo adds it

No, the're the same. There was a Dynaudio variant but that's an upgrade kinda' like some Chevys have Bose speakers. Dynaudio speakers for these cars haven't been available for many many years.

The prologic is an extra decoder box under your dash behind or near the head unit and adds the center ...

Two fuel pumps?

So I have a '99 V70XC with an occasional hard starting problem and I decided to replace the fuel pump. I know there are some who loosen the subframe and do it from underneath and others have cut a hole in the floor. Now I see there is a fuel pump and a fuel transfer pump! So when people cut a hole ...

Re: Boneyard tool kit

Ben, HP Pro Book 6530? I support a bunch of those at work. The updated models with the ten key pad are nice. Afraid the NSA is watching with that tape on the webcam? Loaded up with VIDA to interrogate your pick a part subjects? Ok I know most yards have long since pulled batteries and keys by the ...

Re: Amplifier - How Volvo adds it

Some of the advice posted today is right on but you might also try posting a new question in the correct forum for your car. You might get answers more specific to your model in the right forum. This is for S70 and some other models thru MY 2000.

Re: 2000 xc v70 awd exhaust modifications

It was just a matter of the factory single tip biting the big one...
But the stocker exhaust Won't Die! :(
